Happy Juneteenth everyone!
Happy Juneteenth everyone!
Happy Juneteenth everyone!
I'll take both
Why are we getting weird and territorial about cheese and pasta?
Yeah man, both at fine. I’ve had some great 4-cheese homemade mac’n cheese that doesn’t turn out too dry, but that seems to be the rarity.
How else can we keep racism thriving?
Yeah why are white people in this thread so goddamn triggered over what they claim to love?
I've never met a white woman who wouldnt say the stuff on the right is the best she's ever had but had never had the the stuff on the left.
President’s Day
I maintain that Mac and Cheese is one of those foods that weirdly gets better the worse and more fake it is.
Ive had some gourmet shit and I always think "I miss the old Kraft one with the tinned cheese."
Sounds like Stockholm Syndrome.
Cause you're tasting that sweet, sweet nostalgia.
I'd bet if you gave someone that's never had Mac and cheese before Kraft Mac vs a good gourmet Mac, the gourmet will win by an absolute landslide.
Cheap Mac and cheese isn't good because it's good... It's good because of the old memories attached to it.
I do love the hot Chetto flavored Mac and cheese
I've had a box in my cabinet for a couple weeks, gonna make it now thanks to you.
Bottom one is Wilford Brimley and Dr. Robotnix's son.
Good meme! (I have no clue what any of it means other than the dates)
Juneteenth celebrates the abolishment of slavery, I'd say people of colour are the most happy about that, and people of colour are stereotypically famous for making good food
4th of July celebrates the US independence, which though not a predominantly a white holiday more white people (on account of being a racial majority) will celebrate it, and white people are stereotypically famous for making bland food
I don't think the meme itself is making that particular distinction, moreso just the difference in cuisine in general as a racial stereotype.
Independence day == shitty
Junteenth == based
It's dumb.
I assumed it was: "typical black family Mac and cheese" (baked, delicious)
"typical average American Mac and cheese" (not baked, more saucy, delicious)
Juneteenth does not celebrate the abolishment of slavery. It celebrates the news arriving in Houston. New Jersey had slavery six months after juneteenth. Also it only freed men.
4th of July is only better for me because I don't get Juneteenth off even though I work in a school. Fucked it is!
This year was the first year I worked in an office that didn't recognize Juneteenth. Someone still found a way to complain about people expecting Juneteenth off work and blamed Zoomers for it becoming the norm like it's a bad thing
Gosh dang zoomers expecting nationally recognized holidays off, like this is the 20th century or something. Next they're going to expect clean water, and acceptable working conditions.
Same, I don't understand how schools can weasel their way out of federal holidays so easily lol.
Why are we comparing two unrelated holidays like this
This. OP probably has an antifa flag and speaks on behalf of Black America.
And he's anglo as anglo can be.
Southern food is great because Southern white people have a different set of culinary influences than northern white people. I don't know what that influence might be, but it must've been huge.
Apt user name 😂
I don't think the point of the meme is that Mac n cheese belongs to black people. It's that GOOD Mac n cheese belongs to black people. Maybe you didn't notice, but the Mac n cheese on the left looks how it should while the one on the right looks like watery stoffers. If you didn't notice, I'd say the meme is pretty accurate.
All you're doing is comparing southern style mac n cheese vs basic everyday fast mac n cheese. It's not even a race thing...
Yeah I don't understand what the point of this post is. Maybe they just like Juneteenth better as a holiday?
I cannot speak to macaroni pie directly, but you'd be surprised by how many things considered Southern are straight out of Africa for reasons that should be obvious.
Pretty much every culture that has some form of cheese and processed grain has mixed them together and bake it apparently lol. I wanna try and make pastitsio now
That may be true, but I'm only talking about Southern style mac n' cheese.
I like flaming Hot Cheetos pasta
The Hague would like to know your location.
Jesus christ kill this one with fire
Is this the origin story for Flamin' Hot Mac and Cheese?
Mmmm, cheese leather...
What if cheese, but it was brittle and sharp?
In my mouf pls
Umm, yummy tbh, but that sounds a few steps beyond leathery. I don't usually associate "brittle" and "sharp" with "leather". "Chewy" totally. "Tough", maybe.
Aaaaaaaah
I love this.
I don't get Juneteenth but I didn't have to, it doesn't affect me. Although personally I think the name is weird - it's definitely grammatically incorrect. But whatever, y'all have fun. I like Mac'n'cheese though.
It's a celebration of freedom? What's there to get?
It's just the "Nine" in nineteenth (a word that only has long vowels) replaced with June. June 19th turned into a single word. It specifically celebrates the day slavery was abolished in Texas.
My only gripe is I can never remember the number, and there are several teenths. I'm bad with dates. July 4th is idiot proof.
Yeah, One of the vendors I work with emailed me to let me know they'd be off that day and I had to look it up. It would have been the same if it was called abolition day or something like that but there's something a little annoying about the fact that they made it halfway with putting the date in the name.
Both of those look disgusting. And I like Mac n Cheese.
Cheesy Mac ( the microwave shit) is not Mac n cheese
Mac and cheese is all macaroni cheese pasta.
I don't think I've ever eaten microwaved Mac and cheese, don't wish to try. If that's what those photos are, then obviously disgusting.
Damn Juneteenf sucks
As a European: why would you do that to food? Also is that even actual cheese?
Ah yes, the smug European that has no idea that macaroni and cheese originated in Italy in the 14th century, was extremely popular in England from the 18th century, and was introduced to the US via France.
And yes, it’s cheese. Probably cheddar. You start with a bechamel and incorporate cheese to make a mornay sauce. Combine the sauce with the pasta and serve.
No probably with mac n cheese. Mild problem with processed cheese but if actual cheddar is used, that’s fine.
What I do have a big problem with is kraft mac n cheese mix. Got my hands on an American pack of it and it was disgusting. Tasted like I had just drenched the macaronis in weirdly sticky butter.
Don't bother, obese lemmings will expell their fury at you for making fun of the beloved cheese slop
Go eat some plain pumpernickel if you can't handle actual flavorful food.
